WHAT A TOOL!
Let's all hold hands and sing kumbaya.
It's a flawed premise. If it weren't for Hale's own actions, there would never have been any suspicion of him.
Part of the mythology of Malcolm X, and not at all demonstrably true. Malcolm X did make some comments after his trip to east Africa and Saudi Arabia circa 1964 that had a certain moderate tone when compared to the fiery, hate-filled rhetoric he became famous for in previous years. But in the few months that were left to him before his assasssination after he returned from his foreign travels, he made numerous public statements that were just as inflammatory as anything he had said before he went abroad. It is simply not demonstrably true that Malcolm X was about to "turn away from black nationalism," any more than it has ever been provably true that Kennedy would have pulled out of Viet Nam in 1964.
Just two in a long line of self-perpetuating liberal myths.
Like when all of White America is expected to apologize for slavery, over and over again? ;)
